物联网是一个术语，用来描述日常物品的互联网连接的增加。虽然无线传感器网络已经开发出了高能效的设计，但它们需要在互操作性和可用性方面做出重大改变，才能成为研究我们环境的重要工具。本文展示了物联网（IoT）如何被视为环境传感系统的自然演变。我们讨论了物联网系统的不同风格和示例，并说明了未来的关键技术挑战。我们描述了一个未来的互联世界，并讨论了环境和地球科学传感，网络和互联网技术的作用。
The Internet of Things is a term which has emerged to describe the increase of Internet connectivity of everyday objects. While wireless sensor networks have developed highly energy efficient designs they need a step change in their interoperability and usability to become essential tools in the study of our environment. This paper shows how Internet of Things (IoT) can be seen as a natural evolution of environmental sensing systems. We discuss the different styles and examples of IoT systems and illustrate the key technical challenges ahead. We describe a future connected world and discuss the role of environmental and Earth science sensing, web, and Internet technologies.
